The Golden State Warriors are looking for their sixth win in a row as they come up against the Miami Heat in this inter-conference fixture in the NBA on Thursday night. This match at the Chase Center in San Francisco between the 8th-placed (Western Conference) ‘Warriors’ and the 9th-placed (Eastern Conference) ‘Heat’ could tilt the home team’s way, and our match prediction is a win for the Golden State Warriors.

With a win-loss record of 5-3, the Warriors are eighth in the East and looking for a way to break into the top six. The visitors have a 3-5 record coming into this game from the West, although all three wins have come in their last four fixtures.

A 116-113 win over the Phoenix Suns on Monday night saw the GSW extend their winning streak. They have now picked up five consecutive victories after starting the season with three back-to-back losses. Their home form is equally impressive, as the Warriors have six wins from their last seven matches at home.

The Heat are coming off a 117-116 AOT win over the Los Angeles Clippers on Wednesday night. It was a third victory in the last four matches for Miami (L1), coming straight after a four-game losing run to start the season. However, they have three defeats from their last four away games.
